I don't know if you wan to get the first printing though. We are using it already for our undergraduate courses, and the printers let some typos in -- there are at least two on the IPA chart. Peter pointed them out before the book went to press, but they never got fixed. One of my good friends is the TA for the phonetics course, and she has had to deal with a lot of confusion regarding this. =============================== Marcus Smith AIM: Anaakoot "When you lose a language, it's like dropping a bomb on a museum." -- Kenneth Hale ===============================
